It seems that with VB 5.0, I am only able to get the conversion functions from 
byte arrays to a string or an integer to work.  The WORDToByteArray function 
isn't working for me.  Neither is the BSTRToByteArray function.

I decided to try to write my own versions.  The conversion routine from a 
string to a byte array seems to work, in that when I call the Palm version to 
convert from the byte array back to the string, I get the original string.  

Doing the conversion from an integer to a byte array isn't going as well.  Is 
there any sample code out there that will run under VB 5.0 to do a conversion 
from an integer to a byte array?  (I don't need the byte array to integer 
conversion, as this function is working.)  I tried the code at:

http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=2066

It runs, but when I attempt to perform the reverse conversion from a byte array 
to an integer using the Palm OS functions, VB is giving me the same character 
that shows up when I try to print the byte array to a text box.  (I had hoped 
to get a reassuring question mark, instead of a character.)

Secondly, I need to append the integer byte array to the string byte array.  I 
presume this is simply done using a "+" or an "&" for the two, variant type 
variables holding these arrays (as returned from the functions).

Thanks for giving this some thought, and hopefully, a response.
